(Emily emailed me a suggestion to my last problem which helped me find a solution that worked.)

I have gotten a lot of emails asking me if I found a way to stop Mike Furir from commenting on my site (the BASTARD) and I have, indeed. However, it only works if you run MT 3.2 (as far as I know) - but if you run MT 3.2 and you hate Mike Furir because he leaves annoying comments on your site - and maybe you have fantasies about feeding him to rabid gerbils - then here is what you need to do.

Log into your MT interface. When you first log in, there is a box to the right that says “System Shortcuts”, click “Plugins” under that heading. Scroll down the plugin page to the bottom (usually) and you’ll see the “SpamLookup - Keyword Filter” plugin. Click “Show Settings” to the right of that heading. At the bottom of the “Keywords to Junk” box type this:

Mike Furir 10
mikefurir.com 10

And that will add a score of “10″ to all comments using the words Mike Furir and that will junk them for you. If you look in your “Junk comments” you’ll see them there if you get anymore. Eventually they’ll stop coming all together - but it won’t matter because if they’re junked they don’t show up on any of your pages and then you will have THWARTED THE SATAN THAT IS MIKE FURIR. I HATE HIM SO.
